McPhee fights to hard-earned fifth in Malaysia

JOHN McPhee was ready for the next challenge of the season, with the Malaysian Grand Prix at the Sepang International Circuit last Sunday.

A long, technical and challenging track, Sepang has five left and 10 right-handed corners, with a longest straight of just under a kilometre. And there are two long straights connected by the final hairpin - always a stunning spectacle for Moto3.

Two races remain in 2017, with McPhee in the fight for sixth in the standings.
